Fu, can you really not reconsider?

Fu, can you really not reconsider?

Fu Rongyin leaned lazily on the sofa, still tapping on his phone screen, “Are you feeling unwell anywhere?”

“No.” She got out of bed, “Why am I here?

Where is Xiao Yu?”

“She’s already been taken back by the Nan Family.” Fu Rongyin stood up, “Rest well.”

Just as Fu Rongyin was about to open the door, Chi Yue quickly walked up to him and blocked his way, “Mr.

Fu, could you reconsider the matter I mentioned to you?”

“Not considering it for now.”

“But…”

“I don’t need a marriage partner; you can look elsewhere.

Perhaps someone else is in need.”

The sound of the door closing came, and Chi Yue stood still in place, laughing at herself mockingly.

She had thought that Fu Rongyin was different from Fu Rao, but it turned out Fu Rongyin’s tactics were even more sophisticated.

Indeed, how could such a cold and dignified man be so easily won over?

She called Nan Bingyu to confirm everything was fine on her end, then asked about what had happened afterward.

Nan Bingyu said it was chaotic at the time; knowing that the person who took her was a friend of Chu Shuo, she didn’t inquire further.

Chi Yue was speechless, but it indeed sounded like something Nan Bingyu would do; they chatted briefly and then hung up the phone.

When she opened her eyes, it was Monday again; Chi Yue went to work as usual and ran to the hospital after work.

Bai Qing was in such a condition that every visit might be the last; all Chi Yue could do was to let them both have fewer regrets.

On Friday, Chi Yue encountered Fu Rongyin at the hospital, at the entrance of the gynecology clinic.

Her period was nearing, and the severe dysmenorrhea brought her here every time to get medicine for relief; as she left with the prescription, she immediately noticed a man out of place in this environment.

The tall and dignified man just standing there instantly attracted the eyes of people of all ages.

Chi Yue was probably the only one uninterested in him, passing by without a glance, faintly hearing some people whisper,

“What’s the use of being so handsome if his woman has to visit the gynecologist?”

“What do you know, a man like that, how could he possibly have just one woman?”

“Though to be fair, a man like that must have substantial means, right?”

“…”

The elevator doors closed, cutting off all sounds.

Chi Yue thought, if these women could see that such a man couldn’t possibly be faithful to one woman, how could she have so hotly believed he would marry her?

Moreover, what kind of woman couldn’t he have, why would he waste his time on her?

As she pondered, the elevator doors that had closed opened again, and the tall figure stepped in, the doors closing once more.

For a moment, Chi Yue felt as if the air in the elevator had been vacuumed out, almost leaving her breathless.

Yet just at this moment, the man stepped up to her, cornering her in the tight space.

“Feeling unwell?”

“No.”

“I have little patience,” he said.

The man’s breath was close at hand, and Chi Yue, feeling daring, decided to go for broke, “Could you truly not reconsider it?”

The cool and handsome man stood with his hands in his pockets, calm and composed.

“I don’t have time to play games with you.”

As expected, Chi Yue lowered her eyes, “I understand.”

The elevator door opened, and Chi Yue walked out without looking back.

In the lobby, Chu Shuo was waiting for Fu Rongyin, not expecting to see Chi Yue.

He pocketed his phone and strode over to her.

“Miss Chi, we meet again.”

Chi Yue looked at him, “Mr.

Chu.”

Chu Shuo, happy that she remembered him, asked, “Is your family still in the hospital?”

“Yes.”

Checking the time, Chu Shuo said, “It’s just about time for dinner, shall we have a meal together?”

After some thought, remembering that she hadn’t properly thanked him for taking her to the hospital last time, Chi Yue said, “I’ll treat you.”

As Fu Rongyin walked out of the elevator, he saw Chu Shuo and Chi Yue leaving together.

He did not follow, but instead dialed Chu Shuo’s number.
